Here is three really bad cellphone pics. I will try and get some better ones. My dad is there and he said only about 5 cars have gone down the track today due to people oiling down the track etc...

The Sam Miller tuned 2010 Camaro convertible reset the 5th Gen record at 222.2mph. Awesome run. I went 199.8mph this morning in my C6. Lots of fast LS cars here this weekend.

Steven Lucas from Gonzales TX went 202mph in his TT 2010 Camaro.

Kurt Decker piloted Jessica Rippamonti's 2009 Cadillac CTS-V to 191.7mph which is very good for heads/cam/blower (no N2O).

That is a HUGE statement to the masses because the 5th Gen is pretty brick like compared to the Vettes and sleek imports. That's massive power right there.

I think the car has the power and gear to go 230. Its just very hard on the trans. We got the 225 slip and t-shirt and called it quits!

What kind of set up does the car run? Who built it?
